Vacancy Details

Employer: Lesaka Technologies

Senior Account Executive

Top-tier sales professionals don’t apply for jobs they select platforms where they can dominate.

At Lesaka Technologies, we are scaling a high-performance merchant business focused on enterprise growth, complex deal structuring, and long-term commercial partnerships. If you are a seasoned closer with enterprise exposure and the commercial maturity to manage strategic accounts, this is your opportunity to operate at a senior level.

🔥 What You Will Own

  • Acquisition and expansion of high-value corporate and enterprise merchants
  • Full revenue ownership of a strategic portfolio
  • Structuring, negotiating, and closing complex multi-product fintech solutions
  • Building C-suite and executive stakeholder relationships
  • Driving retention, cross-sell, and long-term account profitability
  • Accurate forecasting, pipeline governance, and disciplined CRM management
  • End-to-end deal leadership in collaboration with Product, Risk, and Operations

This role requires both a hunter’s intensity and a strategic farmer’s discipline.

💼 What You Bring

  • 7+ years of proven B2B sales success within fintech, payments, merchant acquiring, or financial services
  • Demonstrated ability to close and scale enterprise or large corporate accounts
  • Strong financial acumen and solution-based selling capability
  • Executive presence and high-level negotiation expertise
  • A data-driven, performance-focused mindset
  • Ability to operate autonomously within a defined territory
  • Valid driver’s licence and reliable transport

🌱 Why Lesaka

At Lesaka Technologies, senior sales talent is backed by:

  • Uncapped, performance-led earning potential
  • Exposure to strategic, revenue-rich portfolios
  • Direct access to executive leadership
  • Clear progression within a scaling fintech organisation
  • A results-driven culture built on accountability and execution

🎯 This Role Is For

  • Proven enterprise closers
  • Commercial leaders who think in revenue, not activity
  • Professionals who value autonomy with accountability
  • Sales executives ready to operate at senior impact level

If you are ready to own meaningful revenue and close high-value deals apply now.
